Hi everyone. Just wanted to say hello from sunny Chandler, Arizona. I just picked up my 06 530I sport, Orient Blue. I absolutely love it. Within one day i went down and put a set of 21" Lowenhart LD5's wrapped with some wide rubber in the rear. I put 21x10 in back wrapped with Toyo 295/25/21. Up front are 21x9 with 255/30/21(About a 4"Lip all around). I will post some pics in the next couple days. I have been reading on this forum and have found it to be such a great resource. My plans in the next few weeks are to do either an Schnitzer or Hammann trunk spoiler and Bimmian mesh grill on top and bottom. Tint goes on tomorrow and i just ordered the Ipod interface and should be here in a couple days.
I do have a question if anyone wants to answer: I would like to lower the rear about an inch at most to make it perfectly level and to close the small gap that is left. Any suggestions as to the kit and is there one that i could do to just drop the rear. I dont have any room up front since i put the 21's? Thanks and look forward to your response and comments.

Not quite....although i wish. I think i needed the M5 to even get a few seconds from that. Either way, i love the car. Just put Schnitzer pedals on yesterday and got my ACS trunk spoiler today...so i will post pics when complete.
